Abstract: A method in a system with sensors (S1-Sn) and receivers (M1-Mn) for receiving messages from the sensors. According to the invention, at least one of the receivers (M1) is prepared for accepting messages from at least one of the sensors (S1) by rendering the receiver susceptible to a request from the sensor to be registered as a sensor from which the receiver accepts messages, during a time slot (Tm0-Tm1), which has a limited duration in time and is automatically closed after a predetermined period of time, after which time slot the receiver no longer accepts such a request, whereupon the sensor is caused to send said request, comprising an identity code unique to the sensor, to the receiver within the time slot, after which the receiver registers the sensor, when receiving said request, as a sensor from which the receiver accepts messages. The invention also relates to a system for realizing the method.

Abstract: The method involves signaling a downstream ground defect based on signals representing phase currents. The defect is signaled by calculating a residual current and comparing shape of the current with that of the phase currents and determining whether the defect is situated downstream or not of a defect detection apparatus. The defect is determined to be situated downstream, if the shape of the residual current resembles that of one of the phase currents. The defect is determined as not situated downstream, if the residual current`s shape is not same as that of the phase current. An independent claim is also included for a downstream directional detection device implementing of a downstream ground defect directional detection method.

Abstract: An image jaggedness filter is disclosed that can be used to detect the presence of ungrounded objects such as water droplets or coins, and delay periodic baseline adjustments until these objects are no longer present. To do otherwise could produce inaccurate normalized baseline sensor output values. The application of a global baseline offset is also disclosed to quickly modify the sensor offset values to account for conditions such as rapid temperature changes. Background pixels not part of any touch regions can be used to detect changes to no-touch sensor output values and globally modify the sensor offset values accordingly. The use of motion dominance ratios and axis domination confidence values is also disclosed to improve the accuracy of locking onto dominant motion components as part of gesture recognition.
